If you MUST go to 32gb at the start, try and go for 16gbx2 with the money saved from moving to an i5, and possibly savings with downgraded video card

I'd be one to think 32gb is also overkill for most consumer builds, but at the same time, ddr3 will get tough to find eventually...I could probably go to 8gb with my ddr2 setup, but the cost to do so would be pretty prohibitive, too (think $300+ if you can even find it nowadays lol)
